When using the GDB/MI commands to insert a catchpoint on a specific
Ada exception, any re-evaluation of that catchpoint (for instance
a re-evaluation performed after a shared library got mapped by the
inferior) fails. For instance, with any Ada program:
(gdb)
-catch-exception -e program_error
^done,bkptno="1",bkpt={[...]}
(gdb)
-exec-run
=thread-group-started,id="i1",pid="28315"
=thread-created,id="1",group-id="i1"
^running
*running,thread-id="all"
(gdb)
=library-loaded,[...]
&"warning: failed to reevaluate internal exception condition for catchpoint 1: No definition of \"exec\" in current context.\n"
&"warning: failed to reevaluate internal exception condition for catchpoint 1: No definition of \"exec\" in current context.\n"
[...]
The same is true if using an Ada exception catchpoint.
The problem comes from the fact that that we deallocate the strings
given as arguments to create_ada_exception_catchpoint, while the latter
just makes shallow copies of those strings, thus creating dandling
pointers.
This patch fixes the issue by passing freshly allocated strings to
create_ada_exception_catchpoint, while at the same time updating
create_ada_exception_catchpoint's documentation to make it clear
that deallocating the strings is no longer the responsibility of
the caller.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* ada-lang.c (create_ada_exception_catchpoint): Enhance
the documentation of fields "except_string" and "condition".
* mi/mi-cmd-catch.c (mi_cmd_catch_assert): Reallocate
CONDITION on the heap before passing it to
create_ada_exception_catchpoint.
(mi_cmd_catch_exception): Likewise for EXCEPTION_NAME and
CONDITION.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.ada/mi_ex_cond: New testcase.
Tested on x86_64-linux. The "-break-list" test FAILs without
this patch.
This patch introduces two new GDB/MI commands implementing the equivalent
of the "catch exception" and "catch assert" GDB/CLI commands.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* breakpoint.h (init_ada_exception_breakpoint): Add parameter
"enabled".
* breakpoint.c (init_ada_exception_breakpoint): Add parameter
"enabled". Set B->ENABLE_STATE accordingly.
* ada-lang.h (ada_exception_catchpoint_kind): Move here from
ada-lang.c.
(create_ada_exception_catchpoint): Add declaration.
* ada-lang.c (ada_exception_catchpoint_kind): Move to ada-lang.h.
(create_ada_exception_catchpoint): Make non-static. Add new
parameter "disabled". Use it in call to
init_ada_exception_breakpoint.
(catch_ada_exception_command): Add parameter "enabled" in call
to create_ada_exception_catchpoint.
(catch_assert_command): Likewise.
* mi/mi-cmds.h (mi_cmd_catch_assert, mi_cmd_catch_exception):
Add declarations.
* mi/mi-cmds.c (mi_cmds): Add the "catch-assert" and
"catch-exception" commands.
* mi/mi-cmd-catch.c: Add #include "ada-lang.h".
(mi_cmd_catch_assert, mi_cmd_catch_exception): New functions.
Two modifications:
1. The addition of 2013 to the copyright year range for every file;
2. The use of a single year range, instead of potentially multiple
year ranges, as approved by the FSF.
They are equivalent to "catch load" and "catch unload" from CLI.
Rationale: GUIs might be interested in catching solib load or
unload events.
2012-11-16 Mircea Gherzan <mircea.gherzan@intel.com>
* Makefile.in (SUBDIR_MI_OBS): Add mi-cmd-catch.o.
(SUBDIR_MI_SRCS): Add mi/mi-cmd-catch.c.
* breakpoint.c (add_solib_catchpoint): New function that
can be used by both CLI and MI, factored out from
catch_load_or_unload.
(catch_load_or_unload): Strip it down and make it use the
new add_solib_catchpoint.
* breakpoint.h (add_solib_catchpoint): Declare it.
* mi/mi-cmd-break.h: New file.
* mi/mi-cmd-break.c: Include mi-cmd-break.h.
(setup_breakpoint_reporting): New function used for both
catchpoints and breakpoints.
(mi_cmd_break_insert): Use setup_breakpoint_reporting.
* mi/mi-cmd-catch.c: New file.
* mi/mi-cmds.c (mi_cmds): Add the handlers for -catch-load
and -catch-unload.
* mi/mi-cmds.h: Declare the handlers for -catch-load and
-catch-unload.
